PaperArtsy Challnege : Stencils (another one)

I decided to make another card for the PaperArtsy challenge of Stencils.

This time I was inspired by Lin Brown, the queen of background stencilling.

Like Lin, I brayered the background with Fresco Paints in Honeydew, Haystack and Lilac. Then I stencilled with Chalk and Nougat paints, using sequin waste, ELB001 and  Mini Vine.
The stamps are all from JOFY 32, stamped, cut out and coloured with Prismacolor pencils and blended with Sansodor and paper stumps.

PaperArtsy challenge : Stencils

Over at PaperArtsy, the challenge is Stencils, and I have plenty of those :)
My card is inspired by Anna-Karin Evaldsson in the June 2015 Craft Stamper Magazine.

I started with Smoothy (heavy weight) stamping card, and covered it in
Irish Cream Fresco Paint.
The stencilling was done with Tim Holtz Cargo stencil, and the "bump" Fresco Paint colours are Chocolate pudding underneath, and Nougat on top. I used watered down Beach Hut to flick splotches on the card, and colour the stamped images
I used Distress Ink Gathered Twigs to smoosh around the edges, and stencil the circles (using sequin waste as the stencil).
The stamps are from HP 1110
Finally I added some hardware, in the form of the Tim Holtz clock (with hands) and the screw that was just in my "metal bits" box.

PaperArtsy Challenge : Words

The latest challenge at PaperArtsy is "Words"

I decided to use a lovely "Imagine" stamp (I do not know who it is made by) as my main focus. The card behind the stamp is Fresco Paint Moonlight.

For the main background I painted with Eggplant, then used a daisy stencil with Lilac. I washed it over with watered down Snowflake, and then stamped Snowflake and Ink&the Dog Mini 22

PaperArtsy Challenge : Sprays

For the last 2 weeks the challenge over at PaperArtsy has been Sprays.
I don't have many sprays, as they have never really featured in my cards, but I do have some Tattered Angel sprays in the back of the cupboard...
These are not as vibrant as some of the ones used today, so I decided to use them over the paint background as more of a shimmer.

Following  Sara Naumann's recent post I used Fresco paints (Pumpkin Soup, Paprika and London Bus) and brayered them onto the card. I then sprayed a lot of Tattered Angels Gold, copper and autumn leaves and dried it off. It really changed the feel of the card, making it feel almost tacky.
I stamped using Snowflake and Mini 44, Mini 22 and with grey ink Mini 72
The main stamps are JOFY 23 and JOFY 24 and JOFY mini 33
The sentiment is ELB03
The flowers are painted with Fresco paints in London Bus, Claret, Tango, Yellow Submarine and Hey Pesto

PaperArtsy Challenge : Grunge Paste 2

I so enjoyed making the last card, I thought I'd try again with a few changes.
This is for the PaperArtsy challenge : Grunge paste

This time I tinted the grunge paste with Fresco Paint Chocolate Pudding, so that the brown showed through when I sanded back the paint layers. The paint was added with cut 'n dry foam instead of a paintbrush, giving a softer texture. (I used Pumpkin Soup, Haystack,Yellow Submarine)
The stamps are all from JOFY Collection 30
